Conveyancing with Setfords
Frequently asked questions
Conveyancers deal with all the legal aspects of buying, selling, and managing property. They may be solicitors, chartered legal executives, or licensed conveyancers. They all do the same job to help your property transaction run smoothly.
Residential conveyancing solicitors deal with the legals involved when houses are bought and sold. This includes:
- Drafting legal documents: There are plenty involved, including the sale contract, ownership transfer documents and mortgage deeds. We’ll take care of them all, so you don’t need to worry.
- Property searches: This means taking a closer look at the property and its surroundings to uncover any potential problems or existing claims that could impact how you can use and enjoy it.
- Negotiating terms: We’ll talk to the other side’s conveyancer to negotiate the best possible terms for you.
- Managing paperwork: Nobody wants to deal with paperwork, so we’ll take care of the intricate details. This includes Stamp Duty Land Tax/Land Transaction Tax, Land Registry submissions and other required forms.
We also offer residential conveyancing services outside of purchases and sales. Remortgages, transfer of equity, title investigation and more.
A straightforward freehold purchase typically completes in [X–X] weeks. Leasehold matters and longer chains take more time. Your solicitor will give you a realistic estimate once they’ve seen the paperwork and tell you as soon as anything changes it.
Every transaction is different. Our team will be able to talk you through your quote and what all the associated costs mean.
